the GBF after-effects..

have been home for almost a week now.

and until now I still haven't completely met up with friends I left here.

have been busy hanging out with family, and what would you know,

GBF friends.

So earlier we toured Tim and Christine around the city.

They're among those foreign friends we got who decided to come visit.

Hanged out with RG, Renee, and Fred.

The last time they were here, we were with Ritchie and Desi too.

Hanged out and watched Equus even after they left.

And as we were talking we realized,

how GBF has really, completely changed our lives

in one way or another.

People who had work and didn't give it up for the program,

came back and started picking up the pieces.

People like Fred and Allan who had family businesses to go to,

tried to look for work before deciding to go back once again

to their family businesses.

Those who had to quit their jobs for the program,

are now, like me, in what we can call a limbo state.

a state where you're just usually home,

waiting to find the right job.

Undecided people like me,

are still waiting for the job we want,

comtemplating what it is that we really want.

But i guess the biggest take away that I've had from GBF,

was the opportunity to gain so much friends,

meet so much people from diff. backgrounds,

cultures, and nationalities,

with different stories and experiences to share.

Friends who will eternally remind me of the culture we learned together.

Friends who will be with me in my journey from now on.

Real, life-long friends whom I know, will always be there for me

no matter what.

This was the most important thing I got from GBF.

especially because, I am one who doesn't like people..

who make promises, but never fulfill them.

people who talk the talk all the time,

but never really walk the walk.

people who do nothing but make people wait for them,

and yet never deliver.

I HATE ETTTT!!!
